It seems impossible to get a fraction with more than 10 in the denominator from these fonts. Certainly someone has produced such a font.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I don't have a specific recommendation but I go to fontsquirrel.com to get my fonts.
Check out my IoT graphics library here:
https://honeythecodewitch.com/gfx
And my IoT UI/User Experience library here:

|
Do the fractions you want exist in Unicode? I would think that if not, then no font will have them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For really complicated math things, I use Latex and embed the generated PDF extract into my Word doc.

Are you using Unicode?
If so, there is a set of codepoints for the most common fractions: ↉ ⅒ ⅑ ⅛ ⅐ ⅙ ⅕ ¼ ⅓ ½ ⅖ ⅔ ⅜ ⅗ ¾ ⅘ ⅝ ⅚ ⅞
But Unicode also has the possibility of using super and subscript making it possible to create any fraction, such as ²³³⁄₄₅₆.
There are several generators on the net, for example: Unicode Fraction Converter

|

³⁄₁₁
Is not one unicode character but can be achieved. I used Unicode Fraction Creator[^]
[EDIT] sorry I saw such an example was already posted :p

I know it's a joke, but I just wanna say... the vast, vast majority of millionaires are self made.

… the vast majority of billionaires are self-made snake oil salesmen.
FTFY.
Eg. Oracle and SAP.
And Elon Musk with his self-driving automobiles.

Funny you didn’t mention Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos. It’s always the same old story with people like you, never have anything nice to say. Quick to insult. And apparently hate anyone with money.
I could list some of the great things Musk did, for instance. But, I’d bet you’d still hate him because of your programming. And I have zero delusions.
This is the part where you disagree… because that’s all people do online.
Also, a billionaire and a millionaire are not the same thing. You took this post and perverted it into something bad. Shame on you.

I haven't followed Gates, but Bezos deserves all the scorn that can be heaped on him for his continual lawsuits against NASA and SpaceX. And no, I'm not a Musk fan, but Blue Origin has yet to deliver any orbital systems and SpaceX has not one, but two orbital class rocket systems now. Every time BO has lost a NASA contract they've filed a lawsuit against NASA over their losing the contract to SpaceX.

Thanks for bringing some intelligence to this chat. I'm actually a fan of Musk and welcome any criticism as long as it's not politically charged, biased, etc. Nobody is perfect. I simply wish people wouldn't hate based on what TV tells them to hate when it's the thing to do.
I upvoted you btw, because at least you're talking like you paid attention.

I changed my reply from millionaires to billionaires because anyone who had bought a house in the 1990s is probably a millionaire today merely because of the inflation in the price of homes. (My home was NOT in California which is seeing hyper-inflation in home prices.)
To add to that, maxed-out contributions to 401(k) and purchasing company stock through stock purchase plans add to one’s wealth. Anybody in the tech business in the US can become a millionaire by the time he retires, though a million dollars nowadays may not mean what it once did.
Anyone who starts his 401(k) plan at age 22 and continues for 45 years would certainly be a self-made millionaire and an ethical and honest one at that.
I compare these situations to those in power at Oracle or SAP. False promises that
are never kept, continuously forcing upgrades on customers that waste time and money, etc. SAP customers who have customized some of SAP functions to meet their specific requirements are told all of that would have to go by the wayside when they move to the cloud. What happens to their business? The attitude is: cut your feet if they don’t fit the shoe I have sold you.
I was working for a high-tech company that had 5 customers in 1996. The total number of customers it had in its entire history is maybe 1200 and its product portfolio over the company’s life was 160. Our revenue was over $800 million so we were a cash cow. A Big 4 consultant recommended that we install SAP. If I had gone along with that, I could have become an SAP consultant a year later and billed out at $300 an hour. I couldn’t see why the company needed SAP. We were the reference site for all semiconductor companies without semiconductor foundries in the Bay Area for our hardware and software vendors. But the consultant asked for $13 million to advise me on how to implement SAP. Right there you could see the ethical conflict.
Read about Jeff Bezos’s warehouse workers who can’t even take a bathroom break. Read about the UPS drivers who carry a bottle to pee into. Read the horror stories
About the Oracle ERP implementation disaster at Birmingham City Council (UK). Then tell me that billionaires earn their money ethically. I will then know which way your ethical compass points.

I don't think the self-driving "feature" of Elon's cars is the main selling point.

Maybe not.
But people are paying extra for the “Full self-driving” feature, expecting that is what it means and fail to read the small print full of weasel words.
And that is what causes the fatal and non-fatal accidents. And the weasel words protect Elon Musk.
By the way, since “Full self-driving” is a software, it is not transferable from one Tesla owner to the next!
That gives me an idea: if power steering, power brakes, cruise control can be enabled/disabled by software which merely trips a circuit, car manufacturers can disable the function when the vehicle is sold in the used-car market and charge for enabling it again!

That's their mistake. Governments all over the world have called out Tesla multiple times on this. They don't recognize it as such, and neither should consumers.
All car company ads claim theirs is the best. They can't all be right. But I don't get all huffy and puffy when I hear it and I know it's not true. It's called marketing.

I'm not gonna say you're wrong, but I would welcome a link to Tesla's EULA or equivalent that spells this out.
